Pet care experience
Punctual dog lover
I have lived all my life surrounded by dogs, growing up we had two bichon frises who were brother and sister. They had very long and happy lives reaching 13 and 15 years old. My family has always been big on dogs with my oldest sister owning three (two yorkies and a german spitz) and my older sister owning two (border collie and medium large mix). I also have a dog Bo, we think he’s a pointer mix but he is very sweet and friendly. I can walk, or jog to keep your dog active Cold weather and snow is not an issue.

Ratings and reviews
Zak is very reliable and great with the dogs. They missed him!
Zak was amazing with our dogs. We have a brand new puppy as well as two grown dogs. He walked all three and also gave meds too. He stayed at our home and I hope he will come back.
Zak was wonderful in every way. He visited before our trip to meet our elderly dog and to get oriented. During our trip, he communicated responsively and sent us sweet and reassuring pictures. The house was clean upon our return, and our pooch was happy to see us but clearly not stressed. Zak took great care of her, and I’m grateful to have someone I can trust.
This was my first time having anyone besides family watch my 7 year old rescue dog. He can definitely be a handful sometimes, and I needed someone for multiple nights, so I was feeling extra anxious about the whole thing. Zak was amazing!! He sent photos and videos each day, which really put my mind at ease. He stopped by a couple times before we needed him, so Sheldon could become familiar with him. Sheldon took to him really quickly (which is not always the case), so I knew they would be just fine together. Zak was a wonderful dog and house sitter and I will definitely use him again in the future!
Great dog walker. I have a large Rottweiler and my dog loves him. Will definitely use again.
I've trusted my dogs with few people and now, he is the best and only choice I make for my three babies if he's available. He has handled my three dogs under 20lbs total and they are not always the best behaved. On multiple occasions he has gone above and beyond for my favorite dog lady, she has a liver shunt and has needed medicine on multiple occasions. She's 6Lbs but needs a muzzle at the vet, so it is not a fun job. Zak is a fantastic person inside and out and you couldn't find anyone more equipped to take care of your dogs. If he can handle my dogs he can handle any dog. On a personal note, I would trust him with any responsibility, he really is one of the good ones.
